Rod,
I have not heard such information as of last week. However, there
are plenty of issues in play when ASCE is in cycle, similar to what's
happening at the moment for NFPA 13. I'll see if I can get some
information, and post the information once I find out.
I *do* know, that there was nothing of that nature discussed at the
most recent meeting of the hanging and bracing committee of NFPA 13.
I'll get some information.

Just had an Engineer tell us that ASCE 7 is going to be changing so that
seismic design category B will require EQ for fire sprinkler systems and that
is why they are being proactive and requiring it now. Thought I would run it
by the forum for the smell test. Thanks for any info. Thinking if Ken W doesn't
know about this that I might have to call BS......OR ..... I get educated on
current trends. Thanks.
